Gurgling, burping, tummy rolling

Ok, 4 days post op and every time I take a sip of water or protein shake my stomach or pouch or whatever goes on a tirade. It gurgles and flutters and I have to burp. I have taken the smallest sips and still the gurgling and burping. Is this normal and will it eventually stop?

I am not sure what's normal, but the same thing happened to me. It still does and I am almost a month post op.

I think it's normal, personally. It still happens to me. There is a lot less of the gurgling but my pouch is always doing something weird when I am eating or drinking. I always burp or hiccup when I'm full or drinking too fast so it's kind of helpful in a way.

I'm coming up on 6 months out and mine still does the same thing. The burping necessity has gone away, but the rolling, gurgling noises have remained consistent any time I eat or drink something.

My kids think it is hilarious.

I am 4 months out from Sleeve surgery and still have all of these sounds. It doesn't bother me when I'm alone but it is very embarrassing when I'm around other people. My stomach is actually making the noises while I'm writing this post and I'm not even hungry, lol. I truly hope this doesn't last forever ????????
